Does it make news anymore? Having seen him go through the same thing more times than I can remember, it makes many wonder how he is still alive!
For anyone who is interested, Gascoigne was seen out for one of the first times since he was sectioned following an apparent alcohol binge in October.
The 47-year-old (according to friends) has been boosted by a fresh diet and exercise regime and the support of his new girlfriend Mandy Thomas, 44.
He has entered rehab seven times and was first sectioned under the Mental Health Act in 2008 following an incident at a Newcastle hotel.
